I started to play drums in September 2003 when I was 10. I started attending a music school where I had the opportunity to create my first rock cover band. A few years later I joined several bands playing Rock and Heavy and Power Metal.

This song is Giacomo Torti playing ‘Peste Noire’ by Bloodtruth.

The first turning point of my career is dated July 2011. I had the opportunity to re-create the brutal death metal band Bloodtruth, improving my drumming style with fast double bass drumming, blasts, gravity and other fundamental techniques for the brutal death metal style. My musical growth has allowed me to offer myself as session live/studio drummer in several band, such as Five Hundred Murders, Gor Morgul, Ade, Scuorn, Arkana Code and Taur-Im-Duinath. Currently I’m still pushing my full-time band Bloodtruth and playing live shows with Scuorn. I’m also available for private teaching and studio sessions.

About Bloodtruth:

Initially forged in 2009 as a side project of FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE members Francesco Paoli and Paolo Rossi together with Stefano Rossi Ciucci, Bloodtruth is now featuring a lineup with Luís Maggio, Stefano Rossi Ciucci, Stefano Clementini, Riccardo Rogari and Giacomo Torti. Bloodtruth heave forth a sonic fire ball of speed, brutality and unadulterated hate, fusing together the cryptic atmosphere of early ’90sdeath metal, evocative Gregorian chant as a representation of the band’s homeland and history, plus a methodicaltechnique. Bloodtruth are ceaseless in their ear-lacerating capabilities.

Unique Leader Records released “Obedience” on September 16th, 2014 (USA) and September 19th worldwide, while the band was touring Europe with Antropofagus and Devangelic. During September 2015 the band had the opportunity of touring Europe with the mighty Suffocation and Nile, for the “What Should Not Be Unheated” European tour. In April 2017 Bloodtruth started the making of a new record called “Martyrium“, released via Unique Leader Records last September 28th. Martyrium is a 10 tracks of pure death metal aggression, unrelenting musical intensity, and powerful, acidic, hateful vocals. The main themes interlinking the wide range of subjects covered in “Martyrium” are human sacrifice, carnage and slaughter which the Christian Church carried out against all those found guilty of being“heretics”. In this album, historical and ethical relevance are both firmly bonded to the circumstances and facts mentioned in the lyrics. Bloodtruth decided to take into account some of the events narrated in the famous bestseller “The Name of the Rose” (Umberto Eco, 1980) and its vast number of historical and philosophical references, mostly focusing on the martyrdom topic too. The new artworkmasterpiece, done by the highly acclaimed peruvian artist Josè Gabriel Alegria Sabogal (Beheaded, Inferno), perfectly fits the album concept.
